Uses git push with configurable flags (--set-upstream for tracking, --force-with-lease for safer force push). Validates remote exists before pushing and returns push result including remote tracking information. Supports pushing to multiple branches in sequence through separate tool calls.","intents":["Push committed changes to remote repository to share with team or backup to cloud","Set upstream tracking on first push to enable future pull operations","Force push when rewriting history (rebase, amend) with safety checks to prevent data loss"],"best_for":["Automated deployment workflows where LLM commits and pushes changes","Multi-step workflows where push is final step after commit and branch creation","Scenarios requiring upstream tracking setup for subsequent pull operations"],"limitations":["Force push (--force-with-lease) can still lose commits if others pushed to same branch concurrently","No support for push options (e.g., --push-option for CI/CD) — basic push only","Push failures due to rejected updates require manual conflict resolution","No support for pushing tags or refs — only branch pushes"],"requires":["Git repository initialized with remote configured","Network access to remote repository","Authentication credentials (SSH keys or HTTPS token) configured","Write permissions to remote repository"],"input_types":["remote (optional string, default 'origin'), branch (optional string), set_upstream (optional boolean), force (optional boolean)"],"output_types":["push_result (object with success flag, remote_branch, tracking_status)"],"categories":["automation-workflow","tool-use-integration"],"confidence":0.5,"matches":0,"success_rate":0}],"trust":{"score":44,"verified":false,"data_access_risk":"high","permissions":["Node.js >=20.0.0","@modelcontextprotocol/sdk ^1.17.0","Zod ^3.25.67 for schema validation","MCP client that supports tool calling (Claude, custom implementations)","Hono ^4.8.10 (for HTTP transport)","JOSE ^6.0.12 (for JWT/OAuth on HTTP)","MCP_TRANSPORT_TYPE environment variable set to 'stdio' or 'http'","Git repository initialized with remote configured","Network access to remote repository","Clean working directory (no uncommitted changes) for pull to succeed"],"failure_modes":["Tool discovery is static at server startup — dynamic tool registration not supported","Schema validation adds ~50-100ms overhead per tool invocation due to Zod parsing","No built-in rate limiting or quota management per tool — relies on transport layer auth","STDIO transport has no built-in authentication — relies on process-level OS isolation","HTTP transport adds network latency (~10-50ms) compared to STDIO for local operations","Session state is in-memory by default — requires external persistence layer for multi-instance deployments","Automatic port retry on HTTP transport may cause unpredictable port binding in containerized environments","Merge conflicts require manual resolution — tool does not auto-resolve conflicts","Rebase strategy can rewrite history, breaking shared branches if not coordinated","No support for custom merge drivers or conflict resolution strategies","builder identity is not verified yet","no observed match outcomes yet"],"rank_breakdown":{"adoption":0.2928046212262218,"quality":0.5,"ecosystem":0.6000000000000001,"match_graph":0.25,"freshness":0.75,"weights":{"adoption":0.25,"quality":0.25,"ecosystem":0.15,"match_graph":0.23,"freshness":0.12}},"observed_outcomes":{"matches":0,"success_rate":0,"avg_confidence":0,"top_intents":[],"last_matched_at":null},"maintenance":{"status":"active","updated_at":"2026-05-24T12:16:22.064Z","last_scraped_at":"2026-05-03T14:23:38.364Z","last_commit":"2026-04-29T00:56:31Z"},"community":{"stars":214,"forks":52,"weekly_downloads":null,"model_downloads":null,"model_likes":null}},"distribution":{"claim_url":"https://unfragile.ai/submit?claim=mcp-cyanheads-git-mcp-server","compare_url":"https://unfragile.ai/compare?artifact=mcp-cyanheads-git-mcp-server"}},"signature":"6XFJwnSTpXwV7To+qHUkweYydzMz66BpbDKWrUJUvTuhNOe8DDtvSZP94PLStBGFYT/ok14i4rnv0YLsBNhCAw==","signedAt":"2026-06-21T13:32:18.194Z","signedBy":"unfragile.ai","version":1},"_links":{"self":"https://unfragile.ai/api/v1/passport/mcp-cyanheads-git-mcp-server","artifact":"https://unfragile.ai/mcp-cyanheads-git-mcp-server","verify":"https://unfragile.ai/api/v1/verify?slug=mcp-cyanheads-git-mcp-server","publicKey":"https://unfragile.ai/api/v1/trust-passport-public-key","spec":"https://unfragile.ai/trust","schema":"https://unfragile.ai/schema.json","docs":"https://unfragile.ai/docs"}}
